Dry Bones

From Paper Mario Wiki


Dry Bones is a dead Koopa Troopa that has withered into bones. They attack by throwing bones at Mario or his partner. They can also rebuild more Dry Bones if one has been defeated or if they're alone. Because of how dried out their bones are, they take heavy damage when attacked with a bomb or fire attack. In Paper Mario, one fire flower will instantly kill all Dry Bones in the area. What's annoying about them is that not only can they build more Dry Bones, but they can also get back up even after they're dead. The only way to permanently kill them is to use a fire attack or bomb attack. Ironically, in Super Mario Bros 3, using a Fire Flower against one had no effect.
